How we went from 30-second Lambda timeouts killing our video platform to handling 10GB+ file uploads seamlessly with S3 signed URLs. Complete implementation with CDK, security considerations, and production lessons learned.
Learn multi-account AWS architecture through "QuickGrocer's" migration from single-account monolith to event-driven systems during explosive growth. Explore patterns, challenges, and architectural decisions in distributed systems.
After removing all factories, services, and dependency injection from our Node.js microservices, we shipped 3x faster with 65% fewer bugs. Here's why functions beat classes for event-driven architectures.
How we evolved from a nightmare 500K line Node.js MVC monolith to event-driven serverless functions, cutting costs by 65% and deploy times from 45 minutes to 2 minutes. Real numbers, real failures, real solutions.
Explore the motivations behind migrating from Serverless Framework to AWS CDK, including licensing changes, architectural advantages, and when CDK becomes the better choice for your serverless applications.
Learn how to structure a CDK project for serverless applications, configure TypeScript for Lambda development, and establish patterns that ease migration from Serverless Framework.
Deep dive into migrating Lambda functions, API Gateway configurations, request validations, and error handling from Serverless Framework to AWS CDK with practical examples.
Master DynamoDB migrations, environment variable management, secrets handling, and VPC configurations when moving from Serverless Framework to AWS CDK.
Implement robust authentication with Cognito, API Gateway authorizers, and fine-grained IAM policies when migrating from Serverless Framework to AWS CDK.
Execute a smooth migration from Serverless Framework to AWS CDK with proven strategies, testing approaches, rollback procedures, and performance optimization techniques.
Real lessons from building multi-version APIs in production. Why my first three versioning strategies failed, what actually works, and the CDK patterns that saved my sanity.
Why I moved from Express.js to Lambda, the costly mistakes I made along the way, and the TypeScript patterns that saved my team thousands in AWS bills.
From production crashes we couldn't debug to comprehensive monitoring that caught issues before users noticed. My journey through React Native observability with OpenTelemetry, Firebase, and enterprise APM solutions.
How a 'simple' API change cost us $80K in enterprise client integration failures, why documentation drift kills businesses, and the production-tested system that generates OpenAPI specs from Zod schemas automatically.
Comprehensive guide to DLQ strategies, monitoring, and recovery patterns. Real production insights on circuit breakers, exponential backoff, ML-based recovery, and anti-patterns to avoid.
